Chapter 44: Punishment Mission-Seven Wolf Peak Disappearance Investigation (6)

Mari Fujii comes from the Uzumaki Islands of the CD region, where there is a shrine to the god of the sea that everyone worships, and retains the ancient custom of casting nets to catch fish.

According to her, the song she hummed just now was hummed by the fisherman's woman while waiting for her husband's return while mending the net, with good wishes.

"Like Mari, I'm from the CD region." Nobi Komura put down the cup and said, the fire shining on the lenses, making it difficult to see his expression, "But my hometown is in Jihua City, a small city in the south. It smells of flowers and the sea breeze all year round, and although it is not developed because there is no port, it is the most beautiful city in the CD area. ”

The team members chatted over the campfire, and gradually got to know each other better.

Fukuoka Jing looked at his watch, it was already eight o'clock in the evening, and said, "Okay, it's time for us to rest, now let's arrange the vigil." ”

Camping in the wilderness is not just about setting up a tent and lighting a campfire, and there are countless wild spirits at night, some of them are gentle personalities, but others are hunters in the dark.

What's more, the purpose of the dragon's trip is almost a high chance of encountering an unknown man-eating beast, so a vigil is a must.

"Forget it, girl." Eyes swept over Mai Kurosaki and Mari Fujii, Jing Fukuoka shook his head and said, letting these two vigils really reassure him, it is better to cancel it.

"From now until 6 o'clock tomorrow morning, Miyazaki-kun will keep the first half of the night, change to Nobi-kun at 11 o'clock, and then change me at 2 o'clock, I will stay for 4 hours, get up at 6 o'clock for breakfast, and then go around to the north of the Seven Wolf Peak, is there a problem?"

Both Ryuichi and Nobi Komura said there was no problem.

Because there are only two tents, Mai Kurosaki and Mari Fujii sleep one, and Ryuichi's sleeping bag is lent to Mai Kurosaki to use; Akira Fukuoka and Nobi Komura sleep on the other, also two sleeping bags.

With the arrangements in place, the rest of the group quickly got into the tent, and their elves retrieved the Poké Balls.

Ryuichi gently held Gray Yuan in his arms, and gently helped it comb its hair.

Korakola fell asleep next to his calf, and the Lobster Creep and King Carp were released into a creek not far away, preferring to sleep underwater.

There is also a lap snake, which coiled a branch early.

"Gray Plains, are you comfortable?"

Sprinkle a~

It makes a lazy cry.

The serpentine bear's hair was originally rough and hard, but during its hospitalization, Long Yi prepared very high-grade elf food for it three meals a day, so after half a month, the brown hair on his body became a lot softer.

This is a good sign, because the snake bear's evolutionary type has a supple fur, and the softening of the fur proves that Gray Yuan is on the right evolutionary path.

The vigil was boring, and luckily nothing happened on the night of the first day.

At 7 o'clock in the morning, Long Yiyi, who had breakfast, and his party continued on the road.

Today's goal is to spare the Seven Wolves Peak and head to the forest to the north, where the largest group of coyote dogs in the forest is located.

The route inevitably passed through one of the other two wolf packs, and after negotiation, they decided to go west of the Thunder Beast.

After all, compared to Dai Ruby, the Thunder Beast has a gentler temperament, and basically does not take the initiative to attack humans, and Fukuoka Jing also admitted that he wants to subdue a Thunderbolt Beast.

The rest are all there to do.

Re-entering the mountain forest, several people seemed to be much more familiar, and it probably took more than an hour to enter the territory of the Thunderbolt Beast.

However, it is a pity for Fukuoka Jing that this kind of elf rarely appears in front of humans, as the teacher in the school said.

Several times they noticed any movement in the bushes in the distance, but when they passed, they only left a few shallow footprints, which were identified by Nobi Komura as Thunderbolt's.

It was impossible for Ryuichi and the others to accompany Fukuoka Crystal to wander around here, so after a little detour, they left the territory of the Thunderbolt Beast and came to the northern part of the Seven Wolf Peak.

The trees here are a bit sparser than in the south, there are fewer shrubs and vines, and the ground is also dark dirt instead of a soft layer of decay.

"Look, it's a coyote dog!" Long Yi shouted.

It was a small canine with gray fur all over its body and dark gray veins on its face and limbs.

The eyes are red, and the whites of the eyes are yellow. The protruding tiger teeth are very sharp, smaller than some of the larger Chinese pastoral dogs, hiding next to a large tree and staring at this side.

Inexplicably, it was obviously an ordinary elf whose strength was not strong, but Long Yi was a little chilled by its eyes.

"I don't like the way it looks." Nobi Komura expressed Ryuichi's feelings, "I always feel like a butcher looking at pork. ”

The coyote noticed that it had been spotted and slowly retreated. When it retreated, its front half was low, ready for battle at any time, showing a wealth of combat experience.

Then it was gone, and everyone in the group had a feeling of discomfort.

"There are so many coyote dogs here, and there are members of them everywhere, and we can't hide from them at all." Akira Fukuoka said.

His original plan was to go to the territory of the coyote dog first, and then slowly search for the glittering coyote dog, by the way, to see if he could find some clues in the process of searching, or lead out the man-eating beast.

After all, once an elf becomes a man-eating beast, then it will also become very sensitive to the smell of humans.

But the eyes of the coyote just now gave him a bad premonition, but if he went home just because of a small coyote dog, Fukuoka Jing was a little speechless.

"Let's go further and find a good place to camp early."

As Akira Fukuoka said earlier, you can encounter coyote dogs everywhere here, and even the occasional big wolfdog.

There were so many members of this wolf pack that their territory was dozens of times larger than that of the banded bear, and most of the northern forest was shrouded in the shadow of the wolf pack's claws.

And what worried the team members the most was that every coyote dog and big wolfdog they encountered on the way all looked at them with that creepy look, and then silently retreated.

The first to be unbearable was Mari Fujii, who proposed to go back the way she came, but was rejected.

But the others also decided to find a place to camp for the time being and see what was going on.

Ryuichi found a good place.

It was a cave at the foot of the Seven Wolf Peak, I don't know what elf left it, it was spacious enough, but the entrance of the cave was not large, and it could accommodate a circled bear standing upright in and out.

It's a great place to defend and attack!

What's more, there is also an underground river inside the cave. After several water system elves probed, this underground river was actually very shallow, directly connected to the forest river they came to before, ensuring that the back road was unblocked.

Everyone decided on the spot that they would sleep here tonight!

So they pitched their tents and gathered firewood......

But soon they stopped doing what they were doing, for countless pairs of red eyes began to emerge from the forest, and they were all over the place, and everywhere they could see were the shivering red eyes.

It's a coyote dog!

Countless coyote dogs!

Much more coyote dogs than Yono Komura estimates appeared, and a large number of large wolfdogs were mixed in with them.

Five hundred? No! To say the least, there are one or two thousand!

After surrounding the cave, the wolves stepped out of the cover of the forest without hesitation, baring their fangs undisguisedly, and a large amount of saliva dripping into the ground.

The coyote dog was behind, the big wolfhound was in front, and then the wolves split their way.

Several special elves appeared.

That's a dozen extraordinarily strong, tall wolfdogs, and even a couple of vicious Heruga!

There were almost dozens of them, all of them taller and more ferocious than the average wolfhound, and these strong elves guarded seven of the stronger ones.

5 large wolfdogs, 2 black ruga.

The 7 elves walked to the front of the pack, with 5 big wolfdogs and 1 heruga one step behind, and the remaining one heruga at the front.

When it came to the cave and stood still, suddenly a thousand wolves roared, and the terrifying pressure was almost breathless.

"This ...... Could it be this year's wolf king? Mai Kurosaki muttered to herself.

"What do you know?"

Kurosaki Mai knew that now was not the time to be willful, so she rarely didn't stiffen her mouth, and said quickly: "Actually, I am a member of the student union, and I went to investigate the information of the Seven Wolf Peaks before I came, and I know that this year's wolf king is not any of the seven wolf packs, but a black Luga that suddenly appeared, it should be the one in front of me!" If I'm not mistaken, the six elves behind it are the five coyote dogs and the head wolf of the Derubi group! ”

"You mean, we're surrounded by 6 of the 7 wolves in the forest!? And it's all out!? ”

Everyone was frightened by this speculation, and they looked at the wolves in front of them, and the terrifying number really seemed to be the most reasonable only 6 wolf packs combined.

Seven Wolf Peak...... What's going on?
